cool stuff. I was considering an 07k swap for my coupe quattro, it’ll be cool to see the power he can make with it

thats sick

his exhaust manifold is an abortion

lolwut

^^^I think he meant to say that it’s a Ray Charles special.

Intake isn’t pretty either. I don’t think he cares to be honest. Looks like a FAW special

Umm he owns his own shop, that is another B5 that hasn’t ran in years.

hahahah gotcha. Interesting way to put it.

Instead of dimes, that looks like random loose change lol

I shouldnt talk. I wouldn’t know how to turn the welder on.

As long as it doesn’t leak that is all that matters, right? Since when does going fast have to look pretty ;D

(not saying this will be fast or slow, I’m just saying)

Not exactly something you want to hwar a shop say in response to that picture. If my headers looked like that I would have sent them back

the manifold is dumb it doesnt have a merge collector its a sorry excuse for a log and a very bad design at that lol exhaust pulses will just clash and he will wonder why it takes all year to spool a gt30r lol

Good point

Here’s a shop that knows a lot more about the 07K and is actively working towards having one in a B5 shell…
